I scored 54 and while the cube rotations are painful to do I was sure of all my responses and wonder which ones I got wrong. There was one I didn't know the answer: somebody liked 96 but not 45 and liked 540 but not 250 - can someone spoil that for me? There was one that had a trick in the answer order - which was 4 letters on from T which is X but in the choices 4 after T was Y which was what I checked initially.
To SPOIL my own question now my brain has had time to work on it, the answer may be that the first digit is larger than the second digit for liked numbers and less for not liked, with the 0 digits irrelevant. So 9 > 6 and 4 < 5 and 5 > 4 and 2 < 5.
Kindle unlimited link to Prof Steve Keen's new book. Mainstream economics ignores debt and so fails to predict events like the subprime crisis. Keen's first principles approach using double entry bookkeeping shows how money is created by banks when they lend and shows the importance of public and private debt.
It's still peanuts compared to what owners make when their startup goes big. Seems reasonable that there's still room for small startups in AI with smarter approaches that don't require Manhattan project scale at a big company. Whether successful startups should sell out to big companies or become one themselves is the 64 billion question.
I always hated whiteboard coding exercises because under stress coding from scratch I would make stupid syntax errors often in boilerplate code that I normally would just copy from an example. Pseudo code wasn't as bad, but still stressful. Brain teasers on the other hand were fun and I could often solve them without having seen them before. Solving one brain teaser has got me hired more than once.
I can see a huge opportunity after this scheme is common practice to offer a paid club membership like Amazon Prime that guarantees good/reasonable/lower prices on all flights with an airline.
So likely dark matter is a different flavor of something already in the model. Dr. Mills' Hydrino theory presents hydrogen with the electron in a lower orbit that does not radiate as a candidate for dark matter. These states are stable like the ground state. Transition into or between hydrino states emit light in the UV or soft X-ray wavelengths that is not seen in optical telescopes.
There are many ways Mills claims to have experimentally verified the existence of hydrinos but the most obvious one is the faster than hydrogen transit through a gas chromatograph.
I don't believe the author is being very serious here. Their comparison with Starship forgot to normalize for propellant mass, which is one of the more dishonest comparison figures I've seen in my lifetime. Nobody's microwave has a higher specific impulse than the Raptor engine, nevermind nine of them.
Well sure. But the Starship does, so you either have to scale up the space drive or scale down the Raptor engine to get a fair comparison. "power to weight payload lift capability" is a completely facetious comparison if your impulse is too weak to leave the atmosphere.
A middle-schooler could tell you how this goes. The microwave probably weighs ~80lbs to lift 100lbs of rocks. A single Raptor engine has a thrust-to-weight ratio of 200 - the microwave has a ratio of 1.2.
Brilliant Light Power have long been the target of skeptics that do not believe their claims of a classical physics breakthrough. Might this demonstration of concrete blocks being lifted by the microwave power of a common microwave oven be the tipping point in taking the company seriously?
